Short Historical Overview In the 1940s, two phenomena in the ?eld of cosmic rays (CR) forced scientists to think that the Sun is a powerful source of high-energy particles. One of these was discovered because of the daily solar variation of CR, which the maximum number of CR observed near noon (referring to the existence of continuous ?ux of CR from the direction of the Sun); this became the experimental basis of the theory that CR’s ´ originate from the Sun (or, for that matter, from within the solar system) (Alfven 1954). The second phenomenon was discovered when large ?uxes ... Read more

Reviews for Solar Neutrons and Related Phenomena
From the reviews: “This book represents an exhausting monograph on solar neutrons written by an expert who worked about these particles from the Sun since 1965. … The table of contents is a very detailed one, it covers 24 printed pages. … Many observations are given in tables and figures, the corresponding theoretical developments are given in many formulas, ...
